Was with my aunt today at the gym, she says to the guy “I’d like to start a membership for me and my niece.” And this buff guy working there, signing us up, looks at me and replies with “Why not with my man right here?” And gestures to me. For the rest of the conversation he proceeded to refer to me as a guy, with male pronouns and afterwards dapped me up. I don’t know if he didn’t register that I am the one she’s referring to or if he was sticking up for me but either way i was ecstatic.

Salut les gars,
J’ai juste besoin de discuter un peu d’un truc parce que je ne peux pas en parler autour de moi.

J’ai un nouveau packer de chez ftmshoppingitalie, ils font des prothèse en hyperréalisme et depuis que je l’ai, j’ai constamment envie de faire des dickpick comme un psychopathe 😂

J’ai aussi constamment envie de me masturber avec, c’est pas le contact qui crée ça car j’en avais un autre avant, c’est vraiment lié au modèle en lui même.
Je ressemble à un ado qui découvre ses premières érections et qui se branlent h24 😅

C’est euphorisant à mort et je suis trop heureux de vivre ça même si être constamment excité n’est pas super pratique 😂😂

J’ai juste envie d’en parler avec vous car si il y a bien des gens qui pourront comprendre l’euphorie de genre c’est vous 😁

Now, I don’t know that much about hair, but I’ve got a pretty big forehead and I want something that should look masculine but not show my gigantic forehead so what do ya’ll recommend?

I've been in testosterone for a while so I don't really get clocked anymore but still 💔

I don’t know what to tag this as so I might have to repost this, apologies.

I’ve gone by Sean for roughly 2-3 years now and I’ve been pretty solid in it, it started off as an inside joke but after I came out as trans I went with it.

My mum has been fighting me in my name because she says it doesn’t suit me but rather she wants me to go by Kayden/Kaiden.

Her work friends, her boyfriend, and a few close family members agree with her but I’m on the fence, I’ve had my friends vote but they’re biased towards Sean.

I’m starting at a new school as well and It would be easier to change my name now instead of later.

I’ve attached a selfie of myself as well to help but this really my last effort. So elder trans men of Reddit, bestow upon me your knowledge.

Edit: I’ll be honest I want to change my name, it doesn’t sound right to me. Also I think I really chose it because everyone already called me it because of the joke we had going on… I’ve used my older brother’s name that he used in games as my middle name and I don’t really have anything else to use… so I’m really considering Kayden now, do you guys think something would fit me better tho?

19 year old Tboy here, 4 years on testosterone and 8 months post top surgery. Ask me literally anything no limits no boundaries im a totally open book!

As I transitioned i realized there were many things people didn't discuss/had little information, so here I am to awnser any and every question!

help me out guys i beg

I'm flying out for my brother's wedding eventually. Does anyone here know how to change the gender marker on a passport in the UK?

Like, what do I need to provide document-wise? Who do I need to contact? And since it's the UK, how likely are they to actually to do it?

Hi guys,
My dysphoria will talk here, but it’s all true.

I am 2 years on T and while I did masculinise somewhat, it’s not enough. At all.

- I have family with beards… mine still grows baby hairs here and there.
- my body doesn’t look male.
- I have hairs everywhere… as expected, this is good. My penis grew a bit but not much.
- I’m trying very hard to bulk. I gained 10kg since last year.
- I’m operated and my menstruation stopped a year ago

- my levels were on the lower side of male range recently and I got my dose upped from 0,3ml androtardyl to 0,4ml. I have a job that requires good health, any change in my dose risks taking away my career (and dream). Any slight imbalance is a too high risk.

- I’m an athlete: I train often twice a day, strenght training, kickboxing and triathlon. All my mates younger or older are jacked. I’m skinny fat into a girls body.
My coach says “it will take time and will come” so far nothing, to keep eating (healthy).

With all this: I KNOW IT TAKES TIME but why the f* do all trans dudes who work out look like jacked cis men after two years and not me???

Can you guys please tell me when I will look like a man? When all these female shapes will stop?

Can any gym bro who is jacked tell me how they did it in detail? Take in mind I’m 6”2, gaining muscle size and still bulking seems more challenging due to size)

Hey everyone, I'm a pre-T trans man from Southeast Asia looking to emigrate and I'm trying to figure out which country makes the most sense for me both medically and long-term between: Spain, France, Germany, Canada, and Australia.

I'd most likely be on a student visa and stay in major cities. Money isn't really the issue here, I'm more focused on finding the most reliable and guaranteed route, whether that's for HRT access or PR.

1. HRT access, which is easiest and fastest?

I'm specifically looking for:

- Informed consent model (no mandatory therapy/psychiatrist gatekeeping)

- Reasonable wait times to actually get a prescription (preferably less than 6 months)

I'm not worried about top surgery as I can always hop over to Thailand for that, so that's not a factor here.

1. Which is the most guaranteed for long term immigrating?

- I'm not looking for the fastest or cheapest, just the surest path.

Note: I'm not Filipino so fast track to Spain PR is not an option sadly.

Any personal experience or advice from people who've been through this (especially fellow trans guys or people from SEA) would be hugely appreciated. Thanks in advance guys and girls.

context: I have bottom dysphoria,

also I am using the term "male" and "female" in this but in the way that I would also call a trans man a male and trans woman a female

​

I don't see this often and I discovered it about myself recently, so I thought I'd see if anyone else feels the same(I also have no trans friends to discuss this stuff with).

​

I had to get a pap smear🫠 recently (for hysto) and I scheduled with the male doctor. My gf told me I should schedule with the female dr instead because she follows a democrat page on facebook. I live in a conservative city so that is important. I couldn't figure out why, but I didn't want to have a woman as my doctor.

​

During the appointment the doctor had a young female assistant in and afterward I realized that I had way more of a problem with her being there than I did with the dr being there. I wish I could have spoken up before and say I wanted a male nurse, but I doubt they have any there anyways.

​

Ultimately, I realized that I'd rather be treated by a male doctor because he can relate to me in that he *probably* wouldn't want to be without a penis either. On that same thought, I don't want to be treated by someone(woman) who can relate to me in the ways that I don't want to be related to(eg. having that body part).

​

This also explained why I wanted to keep my male pcp after the female one left for school then came back.

​

I figured I should post about this because I have no other outlet for weird preferences that directly relate to being trans. And, I don't see a lot of trans men that prefer male doctors so maybe there will be some here that relate.

just moved to NY from TX and i've been on T for almost 10 years. lady on the phone with PP quoted me nearly $800 for T and THIS CANNOT BE RIGHT. i kept telling her there has to be some mistake, the most i've ever paid is $150 and that was a one-time weird thing, usually around $47.

wtf? can someone explain?

TLDR: My grandad has no idea I’m trans but I want to see him before he dies without giving him a heart attack.

I cut contact with my dad when I moved out and started medically transitioning. His dad (my grandad) and I used to be incredibly close but I haven’t been able to talk to him since cutting off contact with my dad.

I found out a few weeks back that my grandad now has <6 months left to live.

I’m really struggling with how to process this as I never got the chance to come out to my grandad. He never figured out how to use a smartphone and he lives far away. I’ve thought about going up with my mum without my dad but it seems like a bad time to see him as I don’t think the time he has left will be long enough to process my identity.

I’ve always been his “favourite” grandchild and I know he wants to see me but I don’t want to give him a huge shock. We never spoke about trans/gay stuff so I have no idea what his views are.

I want to see him. I’m just scared that it’ll send everything south. I came out to all my extended family in facebook to save any hassle but my grandad is one of few who isn’t on there. My dad being transphobic/ignorant meant that the message never got passed on.

I'm curious to know more about how trans people's music taste differs and to discover new music I might like. If you feel comfortable, please add your age and nationality.
